14 is just perfect :clap: :clap:

6 is great - I love chance shots like that (seeing them I mean, I could never take one that good!!)

wow, every Vokel set is better than the last. Two questions

What is a BA747 doing that low over Holland
What shutter speed did you use on the two F5s, shouldn't one of them be a blur

Wow the Belgian F-16 with the airliner in the background (well I say background but its almost part of the display) is a stunning image.

For this one 500/4 + TC x1,4 so in total 700mm and it is croped of course.

Frankly, I do not know how low she was flying. But I think, however, quite high :) Tigers were shot on 1/5000s, and one of them is just a bit fuzzy. To both were sharp, depending on the technique, use at least 1/6000s.

Another fantastic set from Volkel.To get shutter speeds of1/5000 I presume you must be using iso's of 3200 or above,yet there doesn't appear to be any sign of noise.Time to get out and give these high settings a go me thinks.Thats what I like about this board,there are always great photo's to be seen,which in turn give you the inspiration to go out and try something different
